In case you are missing any of the pets listed here then check below as backup teams will be provided for each of the fighting rounds.You can also check the comments of any specific boss or elite, where you will find many different strategies that you can use.

Fights Overview

The Deadmines Pet Battle Dungeon consists of 7 stages where you will either have to battle a Boss type pet or an Élite pet paired with two backline pets.

For each encounter we will recommend a team of one or two pets as well as a backup team in case you are missing any of those pets. Your third pet isn't required for mosts fights but make sure you pick a strong one such as the Idolo Anubisath (1,1,2). Any moth, frog or rabbit can also make for a great third pet.

2. Turtles (such as Tartaruga Turchese) (1,1,2) with Appallottolamento are helpful for both boss and backline pets.Take Guscio Difensivo to negate critter stampede attack from the backline pets. This can take a while, so an alternate strategy might be more to your liking.

Recommended strategies:1. Buccino Salmastro (2,2,1) or any other Snail can solo this battle. Critters are immune to the stun from Prigione di Cristallo and their shield combined with the heal from Assorbimento makes it quite easy to end the fight at full HP.

2. Thumbscrew suggests to use any kind of pet with the Idropompa ability.Simply spam Idropompa repeatedly until the Angry Geode is dead then cleanup with your other pets.

2. If your pets from round 5 are still alive and have about 50% health then you can use them again but make sure to pick a strong third pet.Start out with your third pet because Avanzi di Dolcetto will sleep it for 2 rounds. Now switch to Val'kyr Impura, use Maledizione Tragica and then Tormento.Swap to a pet with Graffionero, use Graffionero and then use its stampede type move.Cleanup with your third pet if necessary.

Decoy Breath Keep Breathing and use Decoy on CD, if Mechanical Dragonling dies, use one of the other two.

For the final battle with Cookies Leftovers, try using Onyxian Whelpling with 2/2/2. Use Scorched Earth, because it will break you out of Sleep the same turn Cookies Leftovers uses it. Any similar ability will do the trick. After that, you can Deep Breath for major damage. Follow up with Zandalari Anklerender, hit Black Claw, then Hunting Party. Cookies Leftovers is dead.

A couple of things that are missing from this guide that should be included and corrections:- This is something once a week per account. Not a shocker, but should be noted.- The opening quest and associated port are once per account.- You CANNOT heal your pets during the the actual Scenario, but you CAN heal your pets during the introductory quest.- I was NOT awarded a mining monkey OR a old bottle cap for completing the initial quest as was implied in this guide. - The mining monkey is an additional reward for completing it the second time (The first time as a daily quest).- On Klutz's Battle Bird, I used Nexus Whelpling (1,2,2) instead of (2,2,2) because this set up is better for back pets where you use it.- I have had my Unborn Val'kyr die each time before getting to Cookies Leftovers. I suggest preparing for that, I have a second so it was not a problem. - The currency is listed as "coins" when it should be "caps" in the rewards section, just to clear any confusion, they are referring to the same currency.

I'm a little disappointed in this pet battle dungeon in hindsight. You can eat up all the rewards and prizes in seven weeks. But after that there aren't any prizes or currency to win. That's frustrating. Let us keep getting other rewards and not just bottle caps. I love pet battle dungeons but not when I run out of rewards at week seven entirely.
